I'm annoyed because my family makes just barely over the $120k cutoff where they limit loans to $3k, and I'm supposed to take out an extra $4.5k in loans (totaling $7k). How is that fair?

well... you've got 120K! lol
^ yeah, but that $120K has to go toward paying the mortgage, paying the bills, paying for food, clothes, etc, and all of life's other little things. Besides, it's not like that $120K comes in like a lump sum, it's accumulated over the whole year and is needed to pay for other things along the way.

Anyway, I'm beginning to grow worried, because UPenn and Cornell are both looking a bit too expensive, but I don't know how willing I am to let an Ivy League education slip away... :[
